Revealed: Our Anti-Ageing Secrets

From around the age of 25 the first signs of ageing start to become noticeable on the surface of the skin. Fine lines appear and over time wrinkles, a loss of volume and a loss of density become more apparent.

Our skin ages for a variety of different reasons. Of these reasons not all are inevitable and can be controlled to an extent by a good skincare regime, diet and exercise.

Contributing Factors

Our skin changes as cells replenish themselves less effectively , becomes more sensitive to UV light, produces less collagen and receives less blood flow. But there are other things that can affect it, too.

Maria, the Senior Buyer for Beauty at Ideal World says, "There is no magic wand to stop ageing, it’s about looking after your skin, inside and out. Preparing the skin by cleansing and exfoliation, is essential, to allow your moisturisers to absorb into the skin. Eating healthier and drinking plenty of water will also contribute to good skin health."

Growing Old

The main factor in looking old is getting old. There's no way yet to slow the march of time, and every will notice some change as they age, however, we at Ideal World are looking at ways to bring you solutions to fight the causes and symptoms of behaviours and factors that may not need to affect the way you look, and promote a younger, healthier-looking you.

The visible signs of ageing

The first noticeable sign of ageing are fine lines and wrinkles. Although they may start smaller and more shallow, these expression lines tend to become noticeable around the eyes. All these are caused by the normal facial expressions that we make throughout the day. Deeper wrinkles may also form between the nose and mouth, called nasolabial folds. These are linked to the skin becoming less taut and are often associated with a loss of volume.

It contains ingredients such as Argireline and Syn-ake which help soften expression lines around the eye area and Hyaluronic Acid which helps to plump, smooth and diminish the look of fine lines and wrinkles. One of the processes that can cause the signs of ageing on the surface of our skin is called Glycation. Glycation is a naturally occurring process that can affect the appearance of the skin and one of the causes of the visible signs of ageing. Glycation occurs when sugar molecules attack and break down skin proteins like collagen. Fabulift helps combat this.
